Oronjia PA: Effective Co-management with local communities for environmental rehabilitation
Since the 1980s, close collaboration between the Missouri Botanical Garden (MBG) and Madagascar governement, focusing on scientific expeditions and floristic research, has led to the identification of over 80 priority conservation sites, MBG is now leading the conservation of 12 of those sites including Oronjia. As part of its long-term commitment, MBG developed an exit strategy aimed at strengthening the capacities of local communities for sustainable management of these sites.
Following this approach, the Tsimoka Association works with local communities to protect and restore the forests at Oronjia. Co-management with these communities is one of the key elements of the association’s success, contributing to the environmental rehabilitation and well-being of the surrounding population.
